Design of short Italian sentences to assess near vision performance

Journal of Optometry, 2014
Purpose: To develop and validate 28 short Italian sentences for the construction of the Italian version of the Radner Reading Chart to simultaneously measure near visual acuity and reading speed. Methods: 41 sentences were constructed in Italian language,

Effects of Task on Reading Performance Estimates

Frontiers in Psychology, 2020
Reading is a primary problem for low vision patients and a common functional endpoint for eye disease. However, there is limited agreement on reading assessment methods for clinical outcomes.

Reading text works better than watching videos to improve acuity in a simulation of artificial vision

Scientific Reports, 2022
Simulated artificial vision is used in visual prosthesis design to answer questions about device usability. We previously reported a striking increase in equivalent visual acuity with daily use of a simulation of artificial vision in an active task ...

Comparison of reading speed with 3 different log-scaled reading charts

Journal of Optometry, 2014
Background: A reading chart that resembles real reading conditions is important to evaluate the quality of life in terms of reading performance. The purpose of this study was to compare the reading speed of UiTM Malay related words (UiTM-Mrw) reading ...

Developing a Logarithmic Chinese Reading Acuity Chart

Optometry and Vision Science, 2017
ABSTRACT Purpose An individual’s reading ability cannot be reliably predicted from his/her letter acuity, contrast sensitivity, and visual field extent. We developed a set of Chinese reading acuity charts (C‐READ) to assess the reading ability of Chinese readers, based on the collective wisdom ...

Macular rotation and reading acuity.

JAPANESE ORTHOPTIC JOURNAL, 2001
近年、黄斑変性症に対して中心窩移動術が行われており、術後の視力についての報告も増えてきた。日常生活において読書能力は重要であるが、黄斑変性症の患者の中には、視力と読書能力が一致しない者が少なくない。今回我々は、1999年2月から14か月の間に当科にて中心窩移動術を受け、術前後に検査が可能であった31例を対象に、術前および術後4か月以降(平均7.9月)に遠見視力、近見視力、MNREAD-Jによる臨界文字サイズと読書視力を測定し、比較検討を行ったので報告する。結果、術前後の遠見視力・近見視力ともに有意な変化はなく、臨界文字サイズと読書視力は改善する傾向にあった。また、術前後の遠見・近見視力の変化に対して読書能力の変化を検討したところ、遠見視力の変化(平均-0.03±0.44)に対して臨界文字サイズの変化(

Individualizing Therapy for Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration with Aflibercept (VITAL): A Two-Year Prospective, Interventional Single-Centre Trial

Ophthalmology and Therapy, 2020
Aims To report the mean change in Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and reading performance (reading acuity and maximum reading speed (MRS) using the MNREAD test) between baseline and 24 months in ...

Development of a Reading Accessibility Index Using the MNREAD Acuity Chart [PDF]

JAMA Ophthalmology, 2016
We define a Reading Accessibility Index for evaluating reading in individuals with normal and low vision.To compare the Reading Accessibility Index with data from the Impact of Cataracts on Mobility (ICOM) study.This investigation was a secondary data analysis from the ICOM study performed between July 1, 2014, and September 20, 2015, at 12 eye clinics

Visual acuity and the ability of the visually impaired to read medication instructions [PDF]

British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2004
Although medical information is often communicated in writing, little attention is given as to whether patients can read it--for example, the miniscule writing on the side of the medication bottles (equivalent to 6/6 reduced Snellen). The authors wished to determine a distance visual acuity threshold, using routine assessments of visual acuity (VA ...
